Hello all,

we use Shared iPads on schools. It would be fine to enable location services on shared iPads or at least to set the time zone in the DEP profile, but it is not possible in Jamf School.

Is there any solution for that?

Thank you in advance.

Best Regards

Angelo

I am somewhat confused when you say it is not possible to enable Location Services in the DEP profile for Jamf School, as we do just that.

In our Automated Device Enrollment profile, we currently skip everything except for Location Services and Passcode. So, when going through Setup Assistant, we are prompted to enable Location Services. Is that not the case for you?

Not if I activate Shared iPad mode.

Ahhh. I see. In that case, I don't know of a way to activate it through MDM after enrollment. Apologies.
